In the darkness, there was a dead silence.

Who would have thought that not long ago, their team was attacked by soul beasts. The one who came was the Titan Giant Ape, known as the "Overlord of the Forest".

Even after buffering for a long time, everyone's hearts are still full of "unreality"-

After all, it's the "Titan Ape"!

They saw with themselves that the most powerful teacher in the team, Zao Wou-ki, used his "Martial Soul True Body", and he never shook the "Titan Giant Ape" in the slightest.

Who would have thought that in this attack launched by the "soul beast" against the "human", the gap between the strength of the enemy and the enemy was too large, everyone would be able to survive.

However, at this moment, everyone is not happy because of this, but extremely sad.

If anything, they are just a team of soul masters who have been improvised and put together......

Then, after facing the "forest overlord" Titan Giant Ape, it is already a blessing of luck that someone can survive. Even, there was no "battle damage" in the team due to the sudden attack of the "Titan Giant Ape".

No, they are not, they are a team spontaneously organized by the "Soul Master Academy".

As the lead teacher of the team, Zao Wou-Ki felt his responsibility to ensure the personal safety of the students in the team.

So, even though most of them survived, two students were still in the dark during the night attack, and their fate was uncertain. How could Zao Wou-Ki accept such an outcome?

However, he couldn't accept it anymore, and Zao Wou-Ki couldn't do anything at the moment.

When facing the "Titan Giant Ape", he used his "Martial Soul True Body". Within seven days, Zao Wou-Ki's various attributes will only be half of the original (Weak Period).

Under the "Martial Soul True Body", the power of Zao Wouji's first six soul skills will be one hundred and fifty percent of the original. In this state, his defense stat will also be 200% of his original stat. It can be said that that was Zao Wou-Ki's peak state.

As a result, it was not able to shake the "Titan Giant Ape" in the slightest.

At that time, now with the "weak period" with a statute of limitations of "seven days", what can Zao Wou-Ki do?

Therefore, it is not that Zao Wou-Ki does not want to save his students, it is that he does not have the ability to save people.

……

"Why are you so careless, there is no one around to protect you and start absorbing the soul ring. If it weren't for the kindness of meeting me, you might be in a different place by now. ”

When they first met, Tang San had just absorbed his first soul ring.

When I opened my eyes, I didn't feel what kind of soul skill I had newly acquired, and a strange female voice came from my ears.

At first glance, Tang San felt as if the other party was counting him down.

However, later recalling this clip, the girl's words were not only mixed with a slightly rusty reproach and care, but also a sense of "why are you so careless, thanks to me, you can be fine, don't thank me soon".

It may also be that Xiao Wu, who is in the same dormitory, is also "full of innate soul power".

Therefore, when he learned that the girl was called "Ning Xinli", and she was also "full of innate soul power", Tang San's heart did not fluctuate in the slightest.

The difference is that Ning Xinli showed a look of surprise on her face.

If Tang San was to describe it, it was as if she had found a "rare treasure" at that time.

"Tang San, my elders told me to leave. Now that you're awake, let's leave it at that. ”

Unexpectedly, it was the first time they met, and they didn't know each other very well, but they just got along......

Tang San actually heard a trace of reluctance from the other party's words.

After returning to the academy, Tang San, as usual, studied, cultivated, and worked part-time, as if the girl named "Ning Xinli" had not appeared in his life trajectory.

……

In the first year of the "Notting Junior Soul Master Academy", that short vacation (around March), he spent it in the "blacksmith shop". It wasn't until the end of the semester, during that long time, that the academy approved the vacation to go home (around July), and Tang San went back to the "Holy Soul Village" alone.

Full of joy, he wanted to show his father the results of this academic year's cultivation, but he ushered in a cold letter and a home that seemed to have been uninhabited for a long time.

"What a coincidence, we're meeting again."

Tang San, who was disheartened, returned to "Notting City" and bumped into Ning Xinli who came to look for him again.

It wasn't the second time they'd seen each other.

Before returning home in the first school year (around July), during the shorter vacation (around March), Tang San spent time in the "blacksmith shop". At that time, in "Notting City", Tang San met Ning Xinli for the second time.

At that time, Tang San felt very strange. Because, when they separated for the first time, he didn't tell the girl that he was in "Notting City".

At that time, he felt that maybe this was "fate".

After all, the other party should not be from "Notting City". However, Tang San never explained that she was in "Notting City", and she could meet him again in "Notting City".

In this way, isn't it fate for each other?

"Douluo Continent", let's say it's small, but it's actually quite big; It's big, but it's also quite small.

As small as the "Notting Junior Soul Master Academy" every time it had a long vacation, Tang San could usually meet Ning Xinli.

It's so big that before Ning Xinli came to find Tang San, he hadn't heard of such a person in the "Notting City" where the "Notting Junior Soul Master Academy" was located.

(Her usual range of activities is in Qibao City and Heaven Dou City, and you can find out what hell.) ）

[Private setting: The shorter holiday is around March, and the longer holiday is around July.] That's right, it's winter and summer vacations.

However, "Douluo Continent" doesn't seem to have a "New Year"?

Sort of-

In the past six years, during the holiday in July, Ning Xinli came five times. In the last year, the time Tang San graduated, she went to hunt for the soul ring, and she "missed the appointment".

During that holiday in March, Ning Xinli would occasionally come.

So the second time we met, it was "not seen for months", not for a year. 】

……

"Tang San, what is this?"

After burning the letters left by his father, Tang San returned to "Notting City" alone as he had done when he came.

At that time, he met Ning Xinli and was surprised.

Although it was said that during the time they got along, Ning Xinli did not tell Tang San what she was from. However, Tang San faintly felt that she should not be a Battle Soul Master.

Therefore, Tang San, who had worked in the "blacksmith shop" for a year, equipped Ning Xinli with some easy-to-carry hidden weapons.

Among them, there is the secret weapon he made for the first time with great care, the silent sleeve arrow.

……

In June of this year, Tang San graduated from the "Notting Junior Soul Master Academy".

When graduation was approaching, the teacher suggested that Tang San go to the "Shrek Academy" in "Soto City" to study after graduation.

Originally, in July, Ning Xinli should have appeared in front of Tang San.

Over the years, it has always been that way.

Although it was not explicitly stated, Ning Xinli had always done this. Xiao Wu too, during the two holidays a year, Tang San couldn't see each other.

It was like a wordless tacit understanding between the three of them, but it was broken this year.

After waiting in "Notting City" for a few days, Ning Xinli did not appear in front of Tang San as "miraculously" as before. He knew he might be losing that friend.

There was a reason why Tang San would have such an idea.

Because, in the past six years of getting along, Tang San has always been the one who "passively accepts". Every time, it was Ning Xinli who took the initiative to appear, and he did not take the initiative to look for the other party.

So much so, in fact, he didn't know how to contact Ning Xinli.

Therefore, at the moment when Tang San was about to "migrate" in a big way, if he couldn't tell the other party the news, what could he do to ensure that there would be a chance to meet in the future?

At least in Tang San's opinion, no.

"It is said that there is no class in teaching, as long as we meet the requirements of the academy, there is no reason for you not to accept it."

Therefore, when this familiar voice sounded in front of him, Tang San would have a kind of joy in his heart.

Finally, they will be going to study and live in an academy.

Finally, Ning Xinli is no longer as elusive as before, near and far.

Finally, everyone studied together, but they experienced an unprecedented disaster.

100,000 years, Titan Great Ape.

When this "Forest Overlord" was in front of everyone, Tang San's whole heart trembled slightly.

As the soul of the team, he should have been everyone's "reassurance". However, in the face of such a powerful existence, what can he do?

At the end of the battle, Xiao Wu was captured by the "Titan Giant Ape".

It seems that he was a failed "commander" who did not protect his partners well.

In the face of the "Titan Giant Ape", even the Soul Saint-level teacher Zao Wou-Ki was helpless, let alone Tang San, who only had two soul rings?

So, he was extremely frustrated.

Speaking of which, the heavens seemed to be deliberately teasing Tang San.

When his mood was a little sluggish, a strange vine quietly appeared in front of everyone, tying Ning Xinli into a "twist" and quickly disappeared.

lost two friends one after another, and they were all "uncertain about life and death". One can imagine how bad Tang San's mood must have been at the moment.

……

Ning Xinli felt that the platform in front of her might be in an "inactive" state.

Therefore, it will appear "platinum gold" and be dull.

Glancing around, Ning Xinli felt that it seemed to be the only place that was special. If she wants to leave here, the only thing she can rely on is this strange platform in front of her.

In the blink of an eye, another period of time has passed.

Xu thought of a possibility, and Ning Xinli drove her soul power according to her own ideas and injected it into the platform in front of her.

Sure enough, this platform was like a large "soul power test ball", because of her move, a faint fluorescence gradually rose.

With the passage of time, the "soul power" in Ning Xinli's body is injecting into the "platform" little by little, and the "fluorescence" is getting brighter and brighter.

Just when she felt that she was about to exhaust her soul power, the "fluorescence" finally stopped deepening.

Soul power is exhausted, but it is a very dangerous thing for soul masters. If nothing changes, Ning Xinli may have to try another way.

After all - the method is dead, and the person is alive.

Click, click.

Fortunately, "hard work pays off", Ning Xinli has worked hard for so long, and it is estimated that she used her "soul power" to feed this "strange" platform.

At the same time as this voice sounded, a circular button extended out of the middle of the "platform", and an ethereal voice sounded in Ning Xinli's ears: "Letter, Yang." ”

This popping thing is said to be a "button", but Ning Xinli feels that it is more like a crystal clear "glass".

Through this "button", she saw that there was still a green gold streamer in it.

After doing this, Ning Xinli had no strength at all.

However, the girl's body did not fall because of this. It was as if something had frozen it there, forcing her to pick up the spilled light from the glass ball.

"Faith".

What is this?

It's a pity that before Ning Xinli could figure it out, this strange "platform" erupted with a dazzling white light, completely engulfing her in an instant.

When the white light cleared, the place was empty.

It's as if no one has ever been here, and what happened just now is just an illusion.

It's just that before being swallowed by the white light, Ning Xinli's eyebrows vaguely seemed to have an extra "emerald golden" stamen, which flashed and disappeared.

……

"Nonsense!"

Hearing Tang San's words, Zhao Wuji's eyes widened.

"Do you know what you're talking about?"

Zao Wou-Ki was going crazy.

I really don't know what this kid is thinking about all day, he actually wants to chase the "King of the Forest" who captured Xiao Wu alone.

He's just a small big soul master, not to mention whether he can catch up or not. Even if you catch up, what can you do?

Delivery?

It was no wonder that Tang San had such thoughts. He is the "commander" of this team, but he fails to protect his teammates, and he considers himself very incompetent.

Tang San felt that even if he died, he should be the first.

As for why he chose to chase the "Titan Giant Ape" instead of the unknown "vine" soul beast that took Ning Xinli away.

Not really, in Tang San's heart, Xiao Wu was more important than Ning Xinli.

The same friend, the same human life, for him, in fact, there is not much difference. (You can deceive yourself)

He would chase the "Titan Giant Ape", but it was because it was at least traceable, and that "vine" soul beast, Tang San had no clues at all.

After studying by the master's side for six years, Tang San thought that he already knew a lot about the "soul beast".

However, he never saw where the "vine" came from. In addition, the speed at which it disappeared was a bit too fast.

Therefore, that "Titan Giant Ape", Tang San could at least judge its whereabouts through its footprints. For that "vine" soul beast, Tang San didn't have a clue at all.

Tang San didn't withdraw, and neither did Zao Wouji.

Now that he has lost two students, how can he want someone to have an accident again? So, Zao Wou-ki, who was still in the "weak period", finally decided to chase after everyone together.

Even if it is death, everyone dies together.

No one wants to live alone.
